	Started life as a 131 racing,got modified a couple of times,and then i decided to go ballistic. Got a decent 13B extended port turbo built and slapped it in there.I did lots of weight reduction,and it now weighs 880kgs as you see it here. On street boost it will do 430hp at the fly and over 550 on high boost. Only tried high boost once,and promptly went backwards through my own tyre smoke. ;D Btw,hi guys,I'm from Johannesburg South Africa.Very nice cars on here.I'm a bit of an old car nut myself.Lovely site. Here she is: Good for a 11.7 quarter on low boost and street tyres.heaven knows where it will land on high boost and semi's

	thanks guys. I built this thing in my garage.8 months from start to finish.It was a steep learning curve from my previous build.Ive learned a couple of things..... Most importantly,i will never ever touch a piston engine again.The power in this car is simply astonishing.It destroys driveshafts and diffs with such ease,you don't even feel bad to redo it. Here it is again hooking up at the strip with a friend.That old Minor also sports a 13B.Goes like the clappers.

	In the UK, this picture couldn't happen, because the Minor owner would have the TwinCam out of your 131 as it rusted away! Even crazier, is that you've both got the same engine...and it's from a Mazda! ;D Great car, thanks for joining.
